Under the headline, “Alpine Terrorism-Jews Banned By German Bullies”, the “Daily Mail” prints a despatch from Vienna today, in which the decision of the German-Austrian Alp Association to ban Jews from the Association is severely criticized.

The Association owns nearly all the mountain huts and refuges in the Austrian Alps. The result of the expulsion is incredible to Westerners, the report says. “Any Jew or person of Jewish appearance who would arrive at an Alpine hut during a snowstorm is liable to be refused admission.”
